Early-third-trimester uterine rupture in an unscarred primigravida with a didelphic uterus: a case report
Uterine didelphys is rarely associated with early-third-trimester pre-labor uterine rupture, but when it occurs, it results significant feto-maternal comorbidity. Therefore, it is advisable to screen every primigravida mother for uterine anomalies in addition to performing fetal anatomical scans in the early trimester. This is crucial because the complications associated with this anomaly can be unexpected and may lead to maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality due to delayed treatment.
